ZE:A Guide - Chapter 2: The Members Pt. 1
Chapter 2: The Members Pt. 1
*In order of age - Kevin, KwangHee, SiWan, JunYoung and TaeHun
♦ Kevin - The Australian
He gets the most screen time in the "Mazeltov" MV and performances; sometimes that bugs me since the other members (besides maknae) don't really get to shine in that song, but he's still one of my favorite members regardless. He does a good job hiding his accent, but it's really clear once he starts speaking English; I honestly think it's one of his cutest qualities. :) He acts really motherly despite not being the umma of the group, so I think he should be called the appa of the group! xD He knows how to rap well, but it doesn't seem like they use him as a rapper in the group. Later on I hope he gets a few rap lines, but with HeeChul and TaeHeon already rapping, who knows. :/

♦ KwangHee - The Model
Ooh~ one of the two residential divas of the group... I like KwangHee because he doesn't come off as the icy-diva type with an attitude problem; he's more bubbly, cheery, loud and he has a good sense of humor from what I've seen. He's also never seen without his sidekick (AKA best friend) SiWan and they make up what I'd like to "the shits and giggles" of the group. :P Whether they're hitting each other, being ~*divalicious*~ together or just hanging out in general, there's something funny going on between them that makes them one of the best pairings within the group. KwangHee also happens to be one of the best voices in ZE:A and can pretty much be rivaled by no one (except his best friend, haha! xD).
• His real name is Hwang KwangHee.
• His birth date is August 25, 1988.
• He's supposedly fluent in English.
• He idolizes 2AM's JoKwon.
• He was a model for Smart clothing.
• He's best friends with SiWan; he likes to stalk, follow, hit and playfight with SiWan.
• He's the camera whore of the group.
• He likes snowboarding, scuba diving and tennis.

♦ SiWan - The Fashionista
This kid is crazy... I never thought there'd be competition for SHINee's Key in terms of being a diva, but it seems this kid can bring it to the table. :| Despite being the groups second diva and self-claimed fashionista, he doesn't really pine for attention like his best friend KwangHee; he just kind of stands to the side and lets KwangHee do a majority of the talking. In my opinion, SiWan's the second best dancer of the group, and if the timing's right, he could probably run MinWoo for his money. xD I'd say his voice also rivals KwangHee's in being one of the best, but sometimes I can hear that he needs a little more work, but despite that, he brings a fierce attitude to their performances. Even though he's a bit stoic and flashy, he has an incredibly charming, cute and clumsy side to him that makes him one of the most loved members by ZE:A fans. ♥
• His real name is Im WoongJae.
• His birth date is December 1, 1988.
• He's best friends with KwangHee.
• He enjoys shopping for FOOD of all things.
• He's the ~*fashionista*~ of the group.
• Some people say he looks like a mix between SHINee's Key and 2AM's JoKwon.
• He knows how to play the violin.
• From what I've seen, he has the prettiest hands. :P

♦ JunYoung - The Leader
He fills the leader roll quite well since it's apparent how much he cares for his members and how well he keeps his head on during tense moments. xD He really stands behind the rest of the members and tries to keep the tension down, which with nine young boys cramped in a dorm, is impressive. JunYoung's best known from his ulzzang days and for looking like DBSK's YooChun, which I have to give it to him, he really does look like Chunnie's long lost little brother or some distant relative. :/ He has the deepest voice in ZE:A and it happens to be one of my favorites, but the only problem is they need to give him more lines. His voice is amazing; why hide it? Dx
• His real name is Moon JunYoung.
• His birth date is February 9, 1989.
• He's known for looking like DBSK's YooChun and was a former ulzzang.
• He enjoys bowling, soccer, running and imitating his manager.
• He says he doesn't mind that the maknae gets most of the attention.
• He was on MNET's Flower Boy Terror.
• He's had three girlfriends in the past.
• He appeared in Seo InYoung's "I Want You" MV with Kevin.

♦ TaeHun - The Group Umma
Hello, bias #2. :) In my opinion, he seems to be the most underrated member of the group because he doesn't flaunt out his personality enough like the other members; he's always off in the background whether it be in performances or just hanging out with the boys. He seems incredibly shy and soft spoken, even around the other members, but he has a sweet and caring personality and comes off as a little clingy. I'm only guessing this is why he's labeled as the umma of the group. :) Hopefully as they continue, he'll get more rap lines as I prefer his rapping to HeeChul's. While I like HeeChul's style, TaeHun's voice flows better and in my opinion, he even sounds like a young Teddy circa 1TYM (listen to "One Love" and try saying he doesn't sound a little like Teddy).
• His real name is Kim TaeHeon.
• His birth date is June 18, 1989.
• He's known as the umma of the group.
• His mother is deceased. :(
• He does a lot of aegyo acts.
• He talks to HeeChul while sleeping.
• He likes beatboxing, exercising, watching movies/dramas and rapping.
• People think he looks best in glasses (just remember he's the "shades" guy~ xD).
